Abstract
Flexible/stretchable strain sensors have attracted much attention due to their advantages for human-computer interaction, smart wearable and human monitoring. However, there are still great challenges on gaining super durability, quick response, and wide sensing range. This paper provides a simple process to obtain a sensor which is based on graphene (GR)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Ecoflex hybrid, which demonstrates superb endurance (over 1000 cycles at 100% strain), remarkable sensitivity (strain over 125% sensitivity up to 20) and wide sensing range (175%). All results indicate that it is capable for human movement monitoring, such as finger and knee bending and pulse beat. Most importantly, it can be used as a warning function for the night cyclist’s ride. This research provides the feasibility of using this sensor for practical applications.
